Lula: contesto ed effetti della sua condanna

Abstract

Abstract: Il caso Lula: contesto ed effetti della sua condanna – This article presents an analysis of the case from which the first conviction of Lula da Silva was derived in Brazil, and points out that, despite the importance of Operation Lava-Jato, Brazilian version of the Italian Mani Pulite operation, the results obtained in the Lula case indicate for the erosion of the Constitution in favor of other legal goods, contributing to the feeling that it is a process whose treatment by the justice system is different from the others and that the illegalities of this procedure contaminate it.
